    Default Papaya Juice

    I just got this papaya juice from Trader Joe's, only having a faint recollection of what papaya tastes like. So today I pop it open and WOW, this juice smells like vomit! It isn't spoiled, I've only had it for a day, and the exp. date is next year.. It tastes pretty good, but I have to plug my nose before I take a whiff of it! Is this normal for papaya juice? Anything I can do about it, now that I have a whole bottle of it? Hmm.. I wonder if I put in in a smoothie with some bananas and mangoes, if that would dilute the vomit smell, or would my smoothie just smell like vomit, too?

    It DOES smell funky, I'll agree. I use it as a base for smoothies and such and yes, that dilutes it. It's not just you!

    Papaya does kind of smell funky in fruit form, I probably couldn't stomach the juice.

    I hate eating papaya alone, it tastes bad and it smells like shit. It is good for you, so I mix it with other fruits to make a smoothie. I make mine with pineapple, mango, and coconut. Tastes divine, if you like tropical fruits.

    ahah My Spanish teacher in 8th grade brought a papaya to share with the class. Once she started to cut it open we cleared the room, ahah. It smelled pretty damn gross. I don't remember if I actually had the nerve to taste it or not, but if its really that good for you...then i guess id be willing to give it a shot.

    Soak a steak in it before slapping on the grill. The juice makes a good tenderizing marinade since the papain enzymes in papaya break down the tough fibers in meat.

    I've only liked the papaya I had in Brazil. I was shocked at how delicious it was. It's disgusting in the states.

    It's so weird, because I've never thought of papayas as smelly. I grew up eating them off trees in the front yard in hawaii. But tenderizing a steak with papaya juice sounds yummy!
